[Mr.Liberal II]

  Wasn't the subject of getting Radio.Indymedia.org working again
  brought up?
  Arizona.Indymedia.org has turned into 100% Spam only,so still can't
  find stable web site to post my Audio/Photo stories.

> http://www.openplans.org/projects/imc-alternatives.  That includes a 
> colsolidated volunteer list: 
> http://www.openplans.org/projects/imc-alternatives/volunteers. 
> **Don't post new alternatives IMC information to the docs.indymedia 
> wiki pages anymore, just to the open plans pages!**

> 2) Josh M posted the following two documents as a way to help us make 
> sense of how to go about developing the site.
> http://www.openplans.org/projects/imc-alternatives/user-stories
> http://www.openplans.org/projects/imc-alternatives/agile-development
> Read them and let's talk about them.

> 3) DESIGN: We discussed reaching beyond the imc-alternatives and 
> web at phillyimc organizing lists to seek someone to bottom-line the 
> design process.  We briefly discussed the difference between design 
> (appearance and site usability: how does it look and is it easy for 
> users to navigate around it?), and the work we've done on developing 
> functionality (what is the site supposed to do?  what functions does 
> it need to have to accomplish that?).  Aaron suggested writing a task 
> description to entice someone to do a design mockup.  Strypey 
> suggested we do a revamped call-out for volunteers with information 
> about where the alternatives project has come and what volunteer 
> roles we still need to fill.
> 
> 4) There was discussion, mainly between Aaron and Strypey, of the 
> Activist Netwok software.  Strypey posted this part of the log to the 
> open plans wiki: 
> http://www.openplans.org/projects/imc-alternatives/questionsaboutactivismnetwork
> 
> 5) I didn't mention it in the meeting, but the PhillyIMC has been 
> making substantial progress on its drupal site.  Dave Z or any 
> PhillyIMC person, when you get a chance, a short update would be great.
> 
> It was a really productive meeting.  I think we should meet again 
> next week at the same time for the same kind of check in.
> Jay
